Rhys is very strict when it comes to mandatory movie night at the flat. even in the face of a cold.

(*sighs contently* this idea was waiting in my drafts. a lovely anon reminded me of it, so it's only fair that it's next on the list of modern!batboys drabbles.)

There was a deep call of my name, and I sneezed.

The door to my room was pushed open, and when I raised my head, trying to keep my itchy, raw nose from twitching, Cassian appeared in the door, sending me an easy grin. "Evening, sweets."

I blinked at him, feeling another sneeze build in my chest. I must've been quite the sight, curled up in a hoodie Azriel had given me and I had not yet returned, buried under my blanket in my rumpled sheets, hair messy and nose probably red from all the sneezing, surrounded by an armada of used tissues.

When nothing happened, I cleared my throat and grinned weakly, my voice hoarse from coughing and slightly nasal when I mumbled: "Hi." Feeling my brows crunch, I stared at the bag in his hand. "What's that?"

"Rhys called earlier and said you were out of meds, so I went to get you some on my way back home." Cassian stepped over some clothes that were haphazardly thrown onto the floor, and I quickly held out my hand.

"No, no, don't, I don't - wanna get you sick."

Cassian just rolled his eyes good-naturedly and, completely ignoring the weak sound of protest I made, plopped onto the mattress, stretching out with a sigh and leaning against the headboard as he dropped the bag onto the blanket next to me.

Giving up on glaring at him, I leaned forward and pulled it towards me, sniffling lightly.

Something swelled and warmed under my ribs when I peaked into the bag and found not only medicine, but also tea, juice, a big family package of tissues, some chocolate -

Feeling my heart skip gently, I raised my head and felt emotion well in my chest, so much so, my voice was a bit thick when I stared at Cassian with crunched brows, feeling my bottom lip jut out as I sniffled. "Thank you."

Cassian smirked and winked at me. "You're welcome, sweets." He eyed the assortment of mugs on my nightstand next to him. "How are you feeling?"

"Like someone chewed me up and then spit me out again,", I grumbled, crunching my nose to suppress a sneeze and causing Cassian to grin.

"Hey."

I raised my head, and Rhys stuck his head into the room, frowning. "What are you doing?"

"Visiting the patient." Cassian sent him a toothy grin that widened when I hit him with a pillow, turning into a light smirk. "I think she's feeling better already."

I flipped him off.

Rhys grinned and opened the door wider to lean against the doorframe, raising an eyebrow. "Az should be back any moment, you two coming?"

I sniffled, frowning back at him. "Where?"

"The living room." Rhys squinted at me like he was questioning my sanity. "Does she have a fever?"

Cassian reached out, and I was too busy sniffling to slap his hand away when he pressed his palm against my forehead.

"Little warm, but I think that could just be my presence -" This time, the pillow hit him into the face, causing him to snort a deep laugh.

"Well, darling,", Rhys sent me a feline grin, "then you are not excused. It's Saturday." He winked easily. "Movie night."

Breathing out through my half clogged nose, I leaned my head against the wall, sending him a crooked grin. "I'm not sure that's a good idea. I really don't wanna get you guys sick."

Rhys smirked. "I hate to break it to you, love, but you've been sneezing for days; I think that ship has sailed. We either already got it or won't get it at all."

I squinted. "I'm - not sure that's how it works."

Rhys' lips curved, and he raised a brow.

Returning his twinkling stare for a moment, I then breathed out slowly in resignation, but something warmed in my chest as I felt my lips curve and grumbled: "Fine..."

Rhys sent me a wink. "Thank you."

I snuggled into my blanket, sniffling as I pouted a little. "Do I have to get up?"

Cassian raised his brows when Rhys narrowed his eyes in thought, the twinkle in his iris suddenly becoming brighter.

"Actually,", he pushed off the doorframe, "I don't think you do."

Looking up at him in confusion, I watched Rhys' violet eyes sparkle as he raised a brow at me. "Unless you have something against all of us camping out in here?"

"Uhm -", I blinked.

"You might wanna tidy up a little though." The curve of Rhys' lips became wicked as he raised his brows, and when I followed his gaze, my ears heated at the sight of the underwear hanging out of a drawer.

Hastily, I flipped Rhys the bird, only causing him to sent me a mischievous wink while Cassian's head tipped back as his shoulders shook with laughter.

"Fuck off,", I grumbled, lightly kicking his shin, and Rhys chuckled and sent me a wide grin.

"I don´t think any of us would be complaining, but -"

"Do you want movie night or do you want me to lock myself in here?!" I desperately tried to hold back a laugh as I stared at him exasperatedly, my nose itching, and laughing, Rhys turned around.

"Sorry, love."

"Tosser,", I grumbled, sniffling.

Rhys called for Cassian before sticking his head back into the room, sending me a cheeky grin. "There's chicken noodle soup in the kitchen."

I glared halfheartedly at him and pushed my blanket to the side, and Cassian rose, still shaking with chuckles, even as I launched a pillow at him.

Shaking my head and fighting the grin pushing onto my face, I slowly started to pick up the clothes strewn around the room, tossing them into the dirty laundry basket. Sniffling, I threw away all the used tissues before shaking out my blanket and picking up as many of the used cups I could carry. Taking them into the kitchen, I returned to get the rest, barely suppressing a sneeze as I passed Cassian who carried both his and Rhys' duvet into my room. Looking after him with a confused frown, I blinked before huffing and shrugging, turning around to trudge back into the kitchen.

Even with my clogged up nose, I could smell the hearty scent coming from the big pot on the stove, and my stomach grumbled.

Taking the ridiculously huge mugs Mor had gotten me for my last birthday out of the cabinet, I was just putting the kettle on when I heard the front door open and close.

My heart skipped softly at the sound of boots being kicked off and the zipper of a jacket, and when I looked over my shoulder, something tipped over in my chest when Azriel appeared in the doorway. The tip of his nose was a little pink from the cool wind as he ran a hand through his tousled hair, his shoulders shifting under his black hoodie, then he raised his head, and something dipped lightly in my chest when he stilled a little.

I raised a hand and waved.

Azriel's lips slowly tipped upwards, and his iris seemed to begin twinkling a little as he slowly stepped into the kitchen, eyes moving over my face.

"Hey."

His deep, low voice caused my heart to tumble. I tried to hold in the tickling sensation suddenly building in my nose and opened my mouth - only to crunch my face and sneeze loudly into my elbow.

There was a deep snort that sent warmth through me, followed by footsteps, then something brushed against my elbow, and when I raised my head, nose tingling and eyes a little watery, my heart dipped and swerved as Azriel suddenly towered over me.

"Guess that makes the question about whether you're feeling better unnecessary." His cheek was creasing as he grinned lightly down at me, his eyes twinkling as he reached out, carefully brushing a strand of hair to the side that had gotten caught in my lashes.

Somehow managing to ignore the tilting feeling in my chest, I made a face at him, and Azriel's lips curved. The golden spots in his iris were dancing as his gaze moved over my face, a strand of dark hair falling into his forehead, and my breath hitched a little as I stared up at him, his body so close I swore I felt the warmth radiating off of him.

Azriel blinked, then he crunched his brows a little. "Why was Rhys carrying the projector into your room?"

Half an hour later, I was snuggled up in my blankets again, pillows stuffed into my back, legs pulled in a little as I carefully blew away the steam rising from my big mug with chicken noodle soup. On my left, Rhys was buried under his blanket, the hood of his sweatshirt pulled over his head and violet eyes twinkling in the light of the projector I didn´t even know existed in our flat and that was humming softly at the foot of my bed, casting the opening credits onto the blank wall opposite of my bed.

A solid shoulder lightly pressed into mine, and my heart missed a beat, dipping and tilting.

Azriel was sitting on my right, long legs stretched out in front of him. The scent of his cologne was rising into my nose because of the proximity, and I could feel the warmth radiating from him. He had changed into sweatpants and a sweatshirt, his golden eyes bright, reflecting the light of the beamer. I could glimpse Cass on his other side, hair pulled back messily, arms folded comfortably over his chest and buried under his blanket.

The shadow of a crease formed in Azriel's cheek, then he turned his head, and my breath hitched when his warm breath brushed over my temple. Then his deep, low voice sounded right next to my ear in a soft mumble.

"You can keep that hoodie by the way."

My breath hitched; my eyes darting up quickly as I winced a little and opened my mouth to apologize sheepishly, but Azriel just huffed lightly and looked back ahead, the crease in his cheek deepening.

"It's okay." His lips curved a little. "It looks better on you anyway."

Staring up at him as something suddenly rose and fluttered wildly in my chest, I blinked, then I quickly turned my gaze back ahead. Biting down on the inside of my cheek to hold back the ridiculously bright smile trying to push onto my face, I snuggled deeper into the pillows, burying myself in Azriel's hoodie as I stared up at the images flashing over the wall. There was a steady, warm thrum under my ribs as I felt Azriel's shoulder press into mine, his solid body radiating warmth just like Rhys' on my other side, and my lips slowly curved into a soft, bright smile.

Then I crunched my nose to suppress a sneeze.

The Emperor's New Muse Part .1

Odyssey Kayn x Reader

content: female reader, non-con, forced blowjob, forced doggy style.

Thunderous marching reverberated through the ship's interior as the sling troopers advanced. In their grasp, you struggled, digging your heels in, violently thrashing. With gritted teeth, you lashed out at the two soldiers who gripped your upper arms like a vice.

Your voice snapped at your captors as you hissed out threats, graphic descriptions of what you promised to make of them ejected from your lips. They cut you off abruptly by throwing your body to the floor. More cusses came from you after your face collided with the hard floor when your eyes snapped to the pair of boots ahead of you.

Looking up your eyes met with a single cold blue stare as his left eye was concealed with a golden eye patch that branched across the sharp features of his face. Immediately you recognize who this imposing man is. The blue hair cut into an edgy mohawk and the golden robotic arm that always gripped that mysterious glowing scythe. The Supreme Ordinal Kayn.

Any shock that you expressed vanished as your lip curled in a snarl, but before a creative insult could come out, the ordinal's boot came down onto your head, pressing it firmly as a warning. The troopers are watching this snicker. "That rebel has quite the silver tongue," one of them comments, making you growl in response, the chucking escalates.

The pressured weight on your head shifts as the ordinal kneels before you, grabbing your face and roughly turning it to look at him. A deep ''hmm" vibrates in his throat as he inspects you closely. His single blue-eye flicks up addressing his sling troopers. "A Rebel you say?"

One of the troopers pipe up "This one was caught trying to tamper with our fleet ships at the last dock."

"Yeh, little shit crawled into the system and sliced up the engine room," says another one. Kayn looks at you with a raised brow.

"You're a mechanic? You understand the elite design of our locus armada fleet ships?" You scoff and roll your eyes.

"I don't, I was just blasting everything until it turned off" Kayn's face scrunched in annoyance.

"I see" he drops your head and straightens himself to his feet, walking past the troopers. "Lock her up, I can't be bothered wasting my time on petty nuisances" He turns his back to you and continues walking off indifferently to your presence.

A hot flush boils within you, and your teeth and wrists clench simultaneously. How dare you be written off as a pest by this bastard! You were his sworn enemy, THE enemy of the Demaxian empire. They may not know who you are but you know them. They had taken your home planet from your people and had drained it of all its ora leaving a lifeless uninhabitable system behind in their greedy pursuit.

You remember the day when the serene sky darkened with the looming shadows of a fleet. When the Demaxians landed an instant struggle ensued as the village you lived in was raided and ravaged by troops. Anyone who resisted was executed immediately and those who remained were either left behind on the dying planet or taken in by force. You never saw your family again, which filled you with bitter hatred towards King Jarvan IV and his empire.

In retaliation, you dedicated your life to vengeance. You had joined a growing rebel group becoming a menace to the empire. You would sneak into capital cities to graffiti the suburbs and protest loudly in the streets. Unfortunately, it seemed that the people of the capitol didn't care much for the opinion of a lower-class citizen. They didn't have to suffer having their planet overthrown by the empire, they lived comfortably in their wealthy establishments and benefitted from having their cities powered by the ora they drained from your land.

You had all this rage, a desire to be known to the empire for that hatred. You wished to tear down Demaxia from its golden pedestal of ora, to drag it and all of its selfish people into hell. To be caught then mindlessly thrown into the prisons like some petty fellon? How demeaning.

As you were being taken away by the guards, you let out a sharp scream and managed to break free. You quickly rushed towards Kayn, moving swiftly and lightly on the balls of your feet, pumping your legs, and launching yourself upwards to attack him. However, even with Kayn's back turned towards you, He swiftly swished his coat and maneuvered himself out of your range.

He swiftly spins his scythe, the blunt handle of it knocking your airborne body off and slamming you into the ground with a painful crack. Your entire body aches as you cough, the wind completely knocked out of you. You spit blood from your mouth as you scramble to collect your composure. You glance around and see the other troopers holding back their laughter.

You lunge towards the demaxian again, the soldiers attempting to restrain you before Kayn. Although Kayn refused to acknowledge you he was impressed by your display of determination. The ordinal scowled while gripping his scythe tightly as if struggling to contain his frustration. "You may be skilled, but that doesn't excuse your lack of respe-" You cut off Kayn with a swift kick to his gut, he hunches over briefly before lashing out a flurry of swings from his scythe each slash you manage to dodge and counter, edging closer to him between each of his misses until you edge close enough to launch another hit hooking into his jaw.

Kayn's demeanor becomes more agitated as he realizes he's been outclassed in the battle. However, you watch as the Demaxian's eyes light up with interest as he smiles slyly and laughs. "You have guts, it's rare for someone of your status to fight back like that." He steps back cracking his neck with his scythe now lowered to his side. "Tell you what, if you can beat me in this duel I'll let you go. Then you'll be free to live this encounter and go back to being a menace to our glorious empire. If you lose however.... let's just say your sentence will be much more severe."

The ordinal inhales deeply and resumes a broad stance standing confidently before you beconing you with his hand in a taunt. "You will not be granted freedom unless you prove yourself worthy of it. So fight me."

The troopers cheer on encouraging the ordinal to put you in your place, but to their surprise you don't back down from the fight. You manage to hold your own against the demaxian, the troopers' eyes widening as you throw punch after punch.

The fight is fast and brutal. Both of you trade blow after blow as your bodies move effortlessly, dancing and flowing together with incredible agility. You dodge and duck beneath his swings while you deliver your own quick attacks in return. The soldiers spectating are captivated by the sight of the fight, some even cheering you both on as the two of you push each other further and further.

You may have been unarmed but Kayn was still unable to land a hit good enough to take you down, merely cutting you lightly while you miraculously used your body as your weapon. Your swift movements are a blur to the soldiers, who barely manage to track the two of you.

You land a series of solid punches to Kayn's body before he retaliates and delivers a kick to your side, pushing you back. You're able to move out of the way of his scythe as it flies past your head, the demaxian's face remains unfazed even though you landed some powerful hits on him.

"A lower class nobody shouldn't have such power" The Ordinal seethes through clenched teeth, his face twists in rage as he realizes you have successfully fought him to a stalemate. You can see the furious fire in his eyes as he stares at you menacingly.

"A rebel...someone like you, you have no right to be this good," the demaxian snarls, "what a shame, you could have been a fine soldier if you had been born into the proper blood," the demaxian chuckles.

Your own face creases with fury. "I take pride in not being of such filthy heritage"

The demaxian laughs loudly and gives you a look of disdain. "Oh? And just what are you prideful of? A species that could never create something so glorious as the Locus Armada? A race that could never harness an element that grants such limitless possibilities?"

He gives you a mocking salute as he speaks, "I can understand why you became a rebel. It must be exhausting being inadequate."

Fed up with his obnoxiousness, you interrupt his insults, swinging your leg behind Kayn's knees in a sweeping motion, causing his legs to buckle. As he stumbles, you aim a well-delivered strike to his groin, forcing him to recoil with a grunt. You top off the combo by bringing your elbow down onto his shoulder.

A satisfied smirk beams down onto the ordinal who was still recovering below you. "Your "glorious" bloodline is full of fat selfish pigs. All you do is swarm and colonize your military is rightly named the locus armada because that perfectly describes your kind as the pest you all are".

Suddenly your nerves are set on fire and your body twitches and spasms erratically as a powerful current of electricity jolt through your body. You drop to the floor feeling all of your strength instantly drained and your blurry vision spots the guards had stepped in with one of them holding a tazer.

Kayn grabs your dazed body and presses you against his chest, he stares into your eyes intently with a powerful gaze, his blue-eye boring right through your spirit. Your hearing is muffled as the insides of your ears ring but you can make out the ordinal's voice commanding his guards to be dismissed before blacking out.

Your eyes snap open as the past events rush back, instinctively you try to get up but are immediately halted finding your hands bound in cuffs. Glaring at them your first move is to try crushing your wrists free through the hole, too tight. Grunting you attempt to bash them against the wall before Kayns mocking voice rings "ah ah ah I wouldn't do that if I were you" He walks over towards you tapping the cuffs with a cunning smirk "Military cuffs, GPS, vital tracking and a shocking protocol" You grumble and glare up at the Ordinal before looking at your surroundings. You expected crumbly, rusted floors, sterile flickering lights and heavy-duty bars. But instead, you found yourself in a luxurious suite. A massive bed made with silky fabrics set in a spacious room of black gold and blue... Demaxian colours.

You squint your eyes and look up at the Ordinal guardedly. "Why did you bring me here? You get lost in your oversized cruise ship?" Kayn remains silent glaring down at you. You looked so pathetic on your knees before him and yet you stared back defiantly, the distain you had for him coming out like potent venom.

The ordinal doesn't respond to your provocation, instead he continues to stare at you with an amused look. The opulent room around you is a contrast to the harsh life you have lived on the streets. The silken furniture, the lavish bed, the spacious room would make any homeless individual feel uncomfortable in its presence.

There is a strange silence between the two of you as you remain on your knees, staring intensely at the demaxian with a hostile glare. His eyes bore into yours for what feels like ages before he finally speak.

"I wouldn't speak so proudly if I were you," the ordinal hisses, "you are a traitor to this empire, a lowborn pest. I could have your head for a pillow, yet you dare to act with such attitude before me?"

The room is silent as the two of you lock eyes, your resentment towards him clear as day. "So what now? Are you going to just kill me?" you ask, your voice full of contempt. The ordinal only shakes his head leaning over you so you have to crane your neck to remain eye contact. "No Im going to remind you exactly where you stand in this chain of command" Kayns says as one of his arms pulls up the fabric of his uniform that drapes over his pants chuckling. "You were naive to think I'd actually set you free from my grasp after all the little stunts you pulled" he clicks his tongue and shakes his head dismissively "no no no imprisonment or death is too good for you, I plan on breaking you another way."

Your eyes narrow as his hand goes to unzip the fly of his pants as he watches your reaction with an amused smirk. "I'm going to teach you to respect this empire" his other arm, the golden robotic one, grabs the back of your head gripping at your hair controlling it to become level with his hips as he looks at you expectantly.

You resist his hold as you jerk your head trying to break free of his grasp when another electric shock reverberates through you eminating from your wrists. A single glare from kayn reminds you that this shock was merely a warning for any more defiance. The ordinals cock now prods your lips promptly.

With a growl you releuctantly submit and begin to tentatively part your lips open, yet Kayn impatiently thrusts his long cock in, instantly hitting the back of your throat. You retch and pull back on instinct but the grip on your hair becomes more severe and you are force to take in more as kayns grip pulls you until your face is flush against his groin his neatly trimmed blue hair brushing your nose.

You can feel the Ordinals cock curve to penetrate your throat cutting off your air, you try to scream intent on cussing him out but the garbled noise that emits from you only makes Kayn throw his head back and moan. His hips begin to thrust each time his cock is crushed down your throat, tears prick your eyes as you helplessly choke.

You can feel your face burn red from the humiliation and lack of air, your head was caving in on itself with pressure, your pulse began to thrum. Panic was sinking in and you felt like you needed to retaliate so you bit down.

Instantly Kayn pulls himself out of your throat and you gasp for air barely getting a sputter before an iron grip is on your throat continuing to suffocate you. "Insolent brat! You'll pay for that!" Suddenly Kayn grabs you and throws you onto the bed, you bounce on the mattress and try to scramble but the Ordinal was fast to pin you down from under him. He grabs your cuffed wrists and pulls them behind your head forcing you into an inconvenient position with his other hand he takes his scythe and uses it to slice off your clothes now leaving you bare beneath him.

You could feel Kayns evil grin behind you as he positioned himself at your entrance, your hands and knees trembled and you mindlessly began to beg for him to stop between little sobs. Kayn leaned forward pressing his broad chest against your back and his laughter vibrated through you. "Not so high and mighty now are you little brat?" his tone was sickeningly sweet and condescending, his warm breath ticking your ear. Finally he pushes in his long length reaching deep within you. Kayn shudders at how you tightly clenched at him, the raw sensation driving him to thrust fast slamming his hips into yours.

Swallowing your sobs you grit your teeth and scrunch your eyes tight bowing your head, you refused to beg, begging for mercy would get you nowhere. Demaxians never took pity, the Ordinal was just as cruel and greedy as the troops that invaded your planet. So you would not cry, you would not submit and you would stay strong through all of this.

Part 2 out now

Nutshell summary about a What if Ophelia got into dark energon accidentally? (Aka I just wanna see her suffer a lot lmao)

Poor Ophelia...

I have been thinking on what would happen if Ophelia ever had Dark Energon (Canon Ophelia wouldn't even touch it). There is a scenario that does stand out though.

In a nutshell...

Honestly depends on when she takes the dark energon.

This scenario would most likely take place when Ophelia is still on the Nemesis.

After Megatron finally takes in the Dark energon, he'll get the idea of the 'good future' of the Decepticons.

The future were Ophelia is the leader.

Megatron would force Ophelia in taking the energon. Something that Soundwave would actively try and get Ophelia out of.

The entire ship is rattled by energon curdling screams when Megatron finally stabs Opehlia with it.

Both bots would wait to see if Ophelia has the same effect like Megatron.

But there is no screaming, just silence.

Megatron thinks that maybe it wasn't enough and thinks about trying again tomorrow and leaves.

Soundwave goes to check Ophelia, but she wordlessly gets up and leaves as if nothing happened.

What the two Cons don't realize is that Ophelia has finally snapped and not the good way.

If Megatron wants her to be the next Great Leader of the Decepticon Armada, then she WILL be so.

Peaceful approaches never worked.

Termination on the other servo...

That can work done correctly.

Hey, Youkai! Because Starscream is one of my favorite characters, I’m curious. Do you have any ships you like involving him (any version) and another character?

I guess Armada Starscream x Alexis is always cute. I love them. Other than that, I don't really pay attention to shipping for him and other characters, though I can see how some are fun. Classic Jetfire x Starscream is cute. And I like when he's in his trine throuple situation with Thundercracker and Skywarp.

Honestly the most honest and probably most canon Starscream ship is Stascream x Himself cuz there ain't nobody that he loves more in the entire universe than himself.

Edit: Note that this does is not to be confused with when he clones himself, because he fucking hates all of his own clones.

One Piece Chapter 1099 - Initial Thoughts

And we're back

After a week break it's time to see if One Piece will take the lead in emotionally devastating me for this week, given how other things are leaving me on 3 week breaks of ship-based anxiety, not that you could tell of course I've kept it sooooo well-hidden

Anyways, it's time for more One Piece and so, more Kuma backstory, let's see where we go from here

Spoilers for the Chapter, Support the Official Release also

Oden cover this time, Tanukis are giving him a makeover

We pick up where we left off two weeks ago, King Becori has returned and has been burning down the south

Kuma though is fighting through the fire to save people

Becori got the idea from the Goa Kingdom fire, figures

The people though are a lot more resistant to the act than the Goa Nobles were, so Becori orders a few to be killed to silence the mob

Kuma is here and he is fucking pissed

The church is being used as a shelter, as Bonney worries for her dad

Despite Becori's threats, Kuma lays out the entire castle, the One Man Revolution of Sorbet

News travels to Marejois about a new king in Sorbet, as Saturn learns that the people voted Kuma to rule

Kuma though says he's just a figurehead, since a previous king, Bulldog, is actually running the country

A much more adult looking Bonney is running laps in the church though, surprising everyone in how much she looks like Ginny

Seems she somehow ate a Devil Fruit, but also wasn't aware of it, since her aging up was unintentional and she was just trying to up her stamina

As the others try to see how much control Bonney has over the fruit, King Bulldog arrives at the church

Hey it's that old version of Bonney she used in the Reverie, but also Bonney here...

Turns out Queen Dowager Conney was an actual person, explains some things at least in how she made it to the Reverie in that disguise

Kuma yelling at Conney at the back thinking it's Bonney XD

Conney is Bulldog's mother, and Bulldog as Kuma's advisor has come with news

Becori's still about, running a smear campaign on Kuma, thus the moniker of 'The Tyrant'

The propaganda means he's still backed by the World Government, and thus it's only a matter of time until they come back to finish the job

Wanting to protect Sorbet, Kuma leaves it in Bulldog's hands, and goes out to confront Becori again at sea, this also means Bulldog and Conney will take care of Bonney in the meantime

'But I'll be so lonely' welp that's another knife in my riddled heart right now

Alas, Kuma does confront Becori, sitting pretty on a Navy ship and accusing Kuma of usurping him and being a corrupt dictator

Kuma sunk the armada, which got him a bounty (Carrot meanwhile sinks a bunch of Yonko ships and doesn't even get one bounty...yes I'm still sore about it the anime did not help validate her conclusion in Wano)

'He was a hero' 'I don't care, he was my dad first' - Oda please my heart doesn't have room for all these knives

Bonney also wants to be a pirate when she's 10 and cured

Kuma journeys out for info on Sapphire Scales, traveling to all the places he sent the Straw Hats to

He first goes to Chopper's island, since they had vast medical information

Then to Mihawk's island, doesn't look too occupied back then

Oh hey it's those Grand Fleet guys, Jeet and Abdullah

The bounty hunters of course fail in trying to claim Kuma, this was very pre-Dressrosa

Vegapunk's old home is next but they don't have answers

Tequila Wolf is sailed past again (Kuma and Oden have now sailed past it), I don't know what the next one is but it looked like Kuma helped it out, maybe it was Brook's island?

Then Weatheria (Nami's island) and the Boin Archipelago (Usopp's island) with Heracles'n

The stress is creeping up on Kuma though, dead ends and Bonney's 10th birthday is getting closer

Now that's a draconic ship there

The Revolutionaries have found Kuma, Morley has joined and Betty is still looking way different to how she does now

Dragon has a drink with his old Comrade, Ivankov and Inazuma are in Impel Down at this point, but despite all the news around Kuma he doesn't listen to media

Betty also gets Kuma's blessing to lead the Eastern Forces, since Dragon wouldn't allow anyone to take Ginny's position without it

Sabo and Koala also wanted to see Kuma, if only Dragon showed this much pride in his biological child

But he does give Kuma some intel, Vegapunk is moving labs and security is lax, good time for an audience

I think the move is implied to be the Punk Hazard incident too

Kuma is more than willing to rejoin the Revolutionaries once Bonney is cured, and Dragon is more than willing to welcome him back

Back at Sorbet, Bonney is learning how to fight, the scales are still spreading slowly though

Kuma takes Bonney to Navy Science Division Lab 08, which will later be where Egghead Island is, telling her it's a check-up

Got a little box for her like Nezuko

Everyone's surprised about how weird looking the other is

Vegapunk CAN cure Bonney, so clone theory might be done now

Bonney is playing with Sentomaru at this moment so she's not privy to the conversation

Stem Cell Treatment will be the method, real life solutions being thrown in there

The price is exorbitant though, equivalent to building a cyborg

Vegapunk also learns that Kuma's a buccaneer, even though his association with the WG would make that dangerous information

Vegapunk can't explain why Buccaneer blood is special, but he'd like more of it to clone him

Kuma is of course concerned about the idea of clone soldiers, but with Vegapunk using it as a form of payment he's more than willing to do it

Vegapunk hoped at least that the clone army's ability to deflect bullets and shoot lasers would scare evil pirates into submission, having watched Oppenheimer I think the sentiment is meant to be similar

But Kuma does like the idea of robots bearing his likeness protecting the innocent

Saturn meanwhile though has other intentions for them 'a weapon's worth is defined by how many it kills'

The bots are named Pacifista after Kuma's proclaiming himself a pacifist, two men looking to do some good without the hindsight of what damage they will wrought

This was a steady chapter really, could've been a lot more devastating for sure.

We've slowly built up again to all the stuff leading to Kuma's affiliation with Vegapunk, as well as his brief run as a pirate. Much like Corazon it seems most of his travels were fuelled by trying to find a cure for Bonney. A lot of blasts from the pasts this chapter too, though I suppose it makes sense that Kuma visited the places he sent the Straw Hats to, given how them being sent there was tailored for their skills or what they needed to improve on.

The Bonney Clone theory is likely dead, but I still can't put it past Oda to pull the rug, especially for Chapter 1100 - Oda and round numbers after all.

But yeah, it seems a brief alleviation for the moment, before it likely goes to hell again...

Hello : What if Starscream had found the minicons in Cybertron back when the war first started. The minicons ( Swindle, the Star Saber minicons, and the Sky boom shield minicons) were captured to be sold to clients but Starscream had rescued them and now the minicons trust him, enough to even show Starscream their power. Swindle had created a bond with Starscream while the rest had created a friendship bond with Starscream. The friendship bond is not as strong as the bond Swindle has with Starscream but it was a bond none the less. Being bonded meant They could feel each others feelings and Starscream could understand the beeping the minions did (He understands Swindle easier because he only has a friendship bond with the rest not because they don't trust him but because Starscream can not be bonded to more that one minicon ) .

Megatron does not know about the minicons living and hiding on his ship. He does find out in the end, making that Starscream run away. Starscream and the minicons were spotted by the Autobots when the Autobots got an Energon signal (Starscream and the Minicons Energon signal).

The Autobots attacked Starscream thinking that he was hurting the mini Cybertronians, They were able to cuff Starscream's wings and hands. What they didn't expect was for the mini Cybertronians to attack them! The Starscteam saber Minicons turned in to jets and flew around the Autobots whild the Skyboom Shield Minicons transformed and drove around the Autobots to distract them while Swindle attacks them with his null rays. Swindle almost kills Optimus if Starscream didn't tell him to stop and told the minicons that the Autobots were who they have been looking for, for the past week.

The Autobots take him to their base where they question him about the so called Minicons. I basically just added the Armada minicons in the the Transformers PRIME universe. (request on Ao3)

Thanks for your request Hello ^^ ! It's an interesting way to mix two universe ^^

~~~

Starscream usually shunned the Black Market like the Rust cosmic, but the Decepticons had some business to do with bounty hunters, although that didn't appeal to the jet.

The Market was generally not very safe for a Seeker, and especially for an Energon Seeker, but Megatron needed him so that they could talk to these mobsters, which justified his presence in this sordid place...

Starscream was camouflaged by a hooded cape, but he really couldn't wait to get out of here…! Hiding his wings was really painful, especially when he had to keep them in such an unpleasant and unusual position...

The leader of the Decepticons had of course specified to Starscream that he should not walk away from him in any way, which the Seeker had no intention of doing anyway. The ex-gladiator was the only bulwark between him and those grime-covered brigands, and there was no way a single one of them would touch him!

That was the basic plan, and he didn't quite understand how he had managed to lose his group... The jet looked around in confusion, wondering when he could have gotten distracted enough to be left behind by Megatron and the others...

Uh… Was panicking justified right now? Because he really wanted to. He began to look around in anguish, while insulting his leader of all names for having had the brilliant idea to take him with him. He didn't even want to come!

The Seeker paced the long maze of the Market, being approached every five minutes by a salesman who always took a certain pleasure in invading his personal space. He suddenly had his arm grabbed by someone and found himself face to face with a robot covered in grime.

“Hey! Wanna buy something?!"

The jet couldn't hide his disgust, and suddenly freed himself, before exclaiming:

"Don't touch me, you miserable ragamuffin!"

The flyer froze a little when he heard the huge silence that followed, and he really regretted his words… Why couldn't he shut up?! The old robot who had approached him scratched his chin, before putting on a very commercial smile, and saying:

“Excuse my brutality, my lord. Maybe I should've been more careful.

- Yeah… It's fine, goodbye… Starscream replied, fighting against his wings so that they didn't express his distrust and his stress.

- You seem like a mech with taste, you're interested in stuff?

- No…!

- You'ven't even looked! Com' on, sir, just take a look."

Starscream began to see the robots around him begin to approach, and that only made him more tense… Was he in the middle of an ambush…? Had he betrayed a Vossian accent in his anger…?

“~ Run away, quick…! ~”

The Seeker turned in surprise to the voice, and saw a minicon locked in a cage, along with others like him. There must have been at least seven of them in this tiny prison… Nobody seemed to hear the speech of the red minicon, who stared insistently at the flyer, urging him to leave.

"So this is how you treat your wares...?" the jet fumed, pointing at the little robots.

He couldn't help but feel sorry for these little beings, even though it really wasn't the time.

"Oh! Interested in this item?! smiled the Merchant, completely changing the subject.

- I did not say that…

- ~ Run! ~” repeated the red minicon insistently.

The jet noticed that he was getting more and more surrounded, and decided to cut the conversation short. He started to walk away without saying a word, when he was blocked by a large robot that got in his way. Starscream frowned, and had to refrain from raising his wings in his anger.

"Get out of my way!" the Seeker got angry.

The big robot shoved him roughly in response, sending the jet into the mud! The flyer dodged a sword thrust from another brigand, and retaliated by kicking him directly in the head, sending him into a wall! Time froze a bit, before everyone around him drew their weapons!

“… Oh…” Starscream stammered.

He dodged the shots, and jumped towards the Merchant, before sending him out of the counter to hide behind! He fired a missile at his attackers, and was suddenly grabbed by the Merchant! The robot caressed his arms with his filthy hands, and grabbed his waist. He smiled, before exclaiming:

“A Vossian is worth a lot! Very expensive!! Many love having their services! These are usually the ones that give the most pleasure!"

Starscream couldn't contain his wings, which flew up in rage and disgust! He brutally pushed this waste away and grabbed the first thing that came to hand, before smashing the object with force on the helmet of this disgusting pervert! The Merchant crashed head first, then the Seeker turned and fired at anyone who got too close for his liking.

He heard a small beep, and noted with shock that the blunt object he had used to crush the head of this pervert was the cage of the minicons. Two of them were rubbing their backs in pain, and the jet quickly took cover under the counter, before saying:

"Oh, scrap…! I'm sorry… !"

Part of the counter was blown up by a cannon shot, and the red minicon who had spoken to him earlier exclaimed:

“~ Free us! ~”

The flyer nodded, understanding that the little robots wanted to be free. He noticed a hole in a wall, big enough for them to pass through, and opened the cage.

“I think you can escape that way, just make sure you don't get caught." Starscream declared, pointing to their escape route.

All the minicons turned to him, and the Seeker gave a confused look when they looked at him with a hint of grief. The jet insisted with a wave of the hand, then exclaimed:

"Come on! What are you waiting for?!"

The shots continued to fly above them, and the flyer knew perfectly well that the counter was not going to last long…! It was then that he heard the loading of a cannon, and saw his enemies being propelled backwards by a large lilac explosion!

Starscream jumped up, and raised his wings, expecting this attacker to be a new opponent, who didn't want competitors. The Seeker unsheathed his blasters, and came out of hiding, before pointing his weapons at this enemy, ready to fire! The jet stopped quickly, when he saw who he had in front of him, and was surprised:

“Lord Megatron?!"

The latter approached angrily towards him, then exclaimed:

"What don't you understand about 'don't walk away from me'?!"

Starscream lowered his head in shame, knowing perfectly well that he had done scrap… The leader of the Decepticons had been very clear, and yet the Seeker had managed to get lost… The ex-gladiator finally calmed down, and sighed strongly, before asking:

"Are you hurt?

- No…" the jet replied simply, frowning, without looking at his leader.

He knew he had been wrong, but that didn't mean he had appreciated that Megatron yelled at him like to a Sparkling… The ex-gladiator noticed the mud on his Commander, then asked:

"You fell?

- I have been pushed.

- …

- And that pervert touched me!"

Starscream pointed an accusing finger with a look filled with disgust at the Merchant who had had the audacity to approach him, and Megatron motioned for the Vehicons to take care of his case, before motioning for the Seeker to follow him.

"He's not likely to do that now." the leader of the Decepticons declared, while screams could be heard in the distance.

After the long day, Starscream sighed in relief when he was finally able to lie down on his charging table. The Seeker rested his arms over his optics, shielding them from the light of his lamp.

It was then that the jet heard a familiar little beep, and quickly sat down on his bunk. He turned his head towards the sound, and couldn't contain a gasp of surprise when he found himself facing the minicons who were at the Black Market.

"Oh?! But what are you doing here?! How did you get in?!

- ~ We wanted to be with you! ~” replied the red minicon.

The others nodded vigorously, and the flyer knelt down to be level with them, unable to hide his concern. He looked at the door several times, fearing that someone would open it and discover the little beings…!

"No… ! You can't stay…!

- ~ Why? ~

- Because it's too dangerous…! If Shockwave finds out about you...!

- ~ It's dangerous everywhere. And then, we have nowhere to go… ~

- …

- ~ Instead of talking about the obvious, let's introduce ourselves! I'm Swindle, and you? ~”

The minicon had cut the discussion short, and Starscream had to admit that little Swindle was the stubborn type. He knew it wasn't safe for them here, but he also knew it wasn't better outside...

The Seeker thought about how he could always hide them in his room, away from prying eyes. Besides, those minicons weren't giving him any looks of disdain or contempt, it was kind of nice. Maybe it wasn't so bad to keep these little robots after all.

“My name is Starscream." smiled the jet.

Time passed, and the minicons never left Starscream. They very often wanted to accompany him out of his room, but the Seeker knew that it was far too dangerous for them. He didn't want them to suffer the same fate as Soundwave's minicons, being sent to the battlefield.

The jet knew Megatron, and he knew that these minicons would be used as weapons, especially with the powers they possessed. It had taken a while for the small group to show him their powers, but the flyer understood why, he was sure that was the primary reason that had brought them as wares to the Black Market.

Swindle had a special power called Null Rays, which allowed him to disable any form of electronic device, including robots. In addition to being a destructive ray in itself, it also had irreversible damage to the affected machines.

Starscream had learned this the hard way when he injured himself repairing a machine, and the minicon mistook it for an attack on the Seeker, and simply destroyed the device, rendering it useless.

Dirt Boss, Downshift, and Mirage were different from Swindle, as they needed to combine for their power to work. Their ability was to create an indestructible shield even more powerful than the Force Field Generator. The only time the minicons used it was during an inside attack.

A mole had planted bombs all over the Nemesis, which caused a lot of damage, as well as many deaths. And, Starscream knew that if the minicons hadn't been there for him, he would surely be one with the All-Spark by now.

Of course, the fact that the Seeker emerged unscathed from this attack had led to many suspicions about him, which had caused him a lot of problems. He was watched even more often by Soundwave, who was always looking for the culprit, and the jet was the number one suspect, obviously.

Swindle was able to get out of the chamber, mostly due to his power, which allowed him to turn off the cameras when needed. He was quick to find the mole, and quickly informed Starscream.

The red minicon was the only one the Seeker could fully understand, as he was the one he bonded with the first time they met. That didn't mean he wasn't attached to the other little robots, but the bond was only possible between a single Transformer and a single minicon. Kind of like Soundwave and Laserbeak.

Of course, when the jet found out who the mole was, he had only one thing on his mind, and that was to confront them! Because of this fragger he lived a daily hell, filled with this obvious suspicion and distrust from others, especially Megatron.

Starscream confronted the robot, and things didn't quite go as he had planned. Even if he hadn't planned much at the beginning, due to his impulsiveness… Jetstorm, Runway and Sonar were the ones who intervened, guided by Swindle who called them for help.

The Seeker then had in hand a simply devastating weapon, which got the better of his enemy in one shot! The truth was soon revealed afterwards, and of course no one thought it right to apologize to the jet for these terrible accusations against him. Apparently he didn't deserve it...

Starscream didn't care, he had ended up getting used to it… He was later tempted to annihilate all his ingrates with his new power, but quickly resigned himself. He couldn't do that to the minicons… Not after all the trust they had placed in him… He didn't feel like betraying them, because it meant losing the only friends he had.

The Decepticons eventually left Cybertron, in pursuit of the Autobots, and the war continued on Earth. What Starscream didn't know was that Swindle came out of his room very often to wander around the Nemesis. It wasn't long before the camera cuts were noticed by Soundwave, as the red minicon became less and less cautious.

What had to happen happened, and Swindle was caught by Megatron with the help of Soundwave. It didn't take long for the little robot to call for help, and Starscream froze when he saw the red minicon trapped in his leader's large hand.

“So the Autobots found minicons, huh! cried out the ex-gladiator angrily, tightening his grip on Swindle.

- Lord Megatron, don't kill him…! exclaimed the Seeker.

- And why this ?!"

Megatron angrily advanced towards his second-in-command, not understanding why the jet was so keen on keeping this spy alive. Swindle struggled in his grip, as the position he was in did not allow him to use his Null Rays, rendering him simply helpless.

"He has… maybe some… information…? About the Autobots…? spluttered the jet.

- Do you really think they would have given any information to a minicon?! Are you stupid?! Megatron replied.

- You're not even sure he's a spy…!

- Lord Megatron!" called out a Vehicon.

The trio looked towards the drone, and the flyer froze when he saw that he was holding Runway, the other minicons being held back by other soldiers.

“They were wandering around the ship looking for something! explained the Vehicon.

- Surely looking for their sidekick!" growled the leader of the Decepticons.

Starscream clenched his wings in anguish, as he slowly lost control of the situation. His stress didn't fail Soundwave, who tensed as he eyed him suspiciously.

"Let's get rid of these snoopers, before they send a distress signal to our enemies!" exclaimed the ex-gladiator.

The Seeker turned to the Communications Commander, but wasn't quite sure what he wanted from the spy plane. Maybe he wanted him to intervene, wanted that Soundwave stop Megatron from killing the minicons… The jet didn't even know what to do anymore, as panic took over.

The Decepticon leader's grip grew stronger on Swindle, who beeped in pain as the other minicons and the flyer looked on in bewilderment. Starscream wasn't quite sure when his body decided to react, but he barely had time to fire his missile at Megatron, as Soundwave launched his cables towards the Seeker to stop him.

The missile hit the ex-gladiator head-on, who in surprise and pain released his grip on Swindle! The red minicon quickly activated his Null Rays, and killed the Vehicons holding his friends back, before rushing towards Starscream, who was struggling against an angry Soundwave!

The Seeker clawed at the visor of the Communications Commander, who backed away and released his grip on the jet. Megatron soon got to his feet, his back smoking from the attack of his traitorous Commander, and yelled:

"You betrayed me for the last time, Starscream!"

He aimed his cannon at the flyer, and the Seeker knew he had no way to dodge…! Dirt Boss, Downshift and Mirage assembled before getting in front of the jet, and forming a shield that stopped the deadly attack of the ex-gladiator, under the shocked gaze of the Decepticons! Swindle created a breach in the ship with his power, and beeped:

“~ Quick! We must go! ~”

Starscream quickly grabbed the six minicons, before jumping into the void with Swindle, who had already left the ship. The Seeker transformed into his alternate mode, and allowed the smaller robots to enter his cockpit, before flying full speed away from the Nemesis, pursued by the Vehicons.

He wasted no time in defeating them all, with the help of Jetstorm, Runway and Sonar who together formed the destructive sword that allowed Starscream to defend himself from the mole! Megatron and Soundwave watched the short battle in shock, as the Vehicons all fell from the sky, while the Seeker flew away from the ship.

Starscream eventually lands, much later that night. The Seeker hid in a cave, and allowed the minicons out. Swindle didn't fail to notice the downcast state of the jet, which had his wings and his head down. The little red robot placed a comforting hand on the flyer's, and beeped:

"~ Are you okay…? ~"

- Honestly…? no… Starscream sighed.

- ~ … ~

- I almost lost you all today… I couldn't protect you… I'm sorry…

- ~… I'm the one who's sorry… I wasn't careful enough… Sorry, Starscream… ~

- It's fine… "

The other minicons approached in turn, showing in turn how sorry they were, and that they didn't want it to happen like this… They had seen that they had endangered the Seeker, and that had never been their intention.

"Let's not talk about it anymore, it's in the past now…" replied the jet, before lying down.

The minicons lay down next to the flyer, who hid his distress as best he could, as he realized they had nowhere left to go...

Starscream was awakened by footsteps not far from the cave, and raised his wings in alert, as the sounds got closer! The minicons soon got up as well, and tensed when they heard voices.

"Are you sure the signal was coming from here, Doc? asked a teasing voice.

- More than sure! And don't call me "Doc"! replied another with annoyance.

- In your opinion, where does this energon signal come from? someone beeped.

- I don't know, Bumblebee, but considering the energy that this thing deploys, it must be colossal, or of an unparalleled power." replied a deep, calm voice.

The Seeker went deeper into the cave, as he easily recognized the Autobots…! He had heard Wheeljack, Ratchet, Bumblebee and Optimus, but he didn't know if there were others with them.

The jet closed his optics and activated his energon radar, but he couldn't see anything, his radar being invaded by a huge energon source next to him. He opened his eyes and looked in surprise at the minicons. It was from them that all this energy came from?! How was that possible?!

Starscream cursed quietly, realizing that it was jamming his radar too much for him to be able to detect the exact presence of the Autobots, as well as their numbers! His motion radar wasn't precise enough… The Seeker motioned the minicons to follow him, and decided to take the path opposite the voices, hoping to find an exit there. It was then that he heard someone exclaim:

"Screamer?!"

The jet raised his wings in surprise, and didn't even waste time looking at who was behind him to fire his missile! Wheeljack narrowly dodged, and was knocked to the ground by the explosion, while the flyer took the opportunity to flee.

Starscream grabbed the minicons, because even though they could transform to go faster, the path in the cave was too perilous for their little alt modes to follow without crashing.

The jet saw light and wasted no time heading towards it, before stopping when he found himself facing Optimus, Bulkhead and Ratchet, who were waiting for him at the exit. The flyer heard blasters charging behind him, and his motion radar picked up three shapes. He couldn't use his energon radar to verify who it was, but he could tell there was Wheeljack and Bumblebee.

"Drop those minicons, Starscream!" hissed a female voice.

The Seeker thus guessed Arcee's presence, but did not obey her order, keeping the small robots close to him. His disobedience only made his enemies even more tense, who were soon all pointing their guns at him!

Starscream lifted his wings and squeezed them behind his back, finding himself surrounded! He thought about defending himself with his weapons, but he quickly received a message that prevented him from going further in his idea.

"Alert! Energon Remaining: 14%!"

Wheeljack saw the Seeker's wings unfurl, and didn't hesitate to shoot him several times in the back, without risking hitting the minicons in the process. The jet screamed in pain and dropped the little robots as he fell!

Swindle beeped in panic and horror, as the flyer collapsed to the ground hissing in pain, his back smoking and his wings damaged. Energon began to flow from Starscream's wounds, and all the minicons crowded around him, not knowing what to do.

The red minicon was the first to react, clenching his fists in rage, before his power energy began to surround him! The Autobots back away, and ducked just in time when a large explosion passed over them!

Jetstorm, Runway, and Sonar transformed into their flying modes and began attacking Transformers from the air, while Dirt Boss, Downshift, and Mirage attacked from the ground, their grounder modes having enough force to knock down smaller Autobots, such as Arcee or Bumblebee. Starscream watched the whole thing in panic, having never wanted a fight to start with the Autobots…!

They were the only chance for the little minicons to have a safe place to live, clearly not being able to stay renegade with the Seeker. It was far too dangerous for them…!

Swindle fired a first shot of Null Ray against Optimus, who, being more robust, resisted the attack even though he was very unsettled. Prime lost the use of his legs for a time, and couldn't hide his surprise. He put his arms out in front of him, as the red minicon was about to fire again, when they heard:

“Swindle, stop!"

The little robot ceased his action, and turned to Starscream, before running towards him. The other minicons were quick to follow Swindle, as the Seeker barely knelt on the ground, struggling to avoid moving his wings as much as possible.

"~ They attacked you…! They are mean! ~ angrily beeped the red minicon.

- No… listen… whispered the jet. You will go with them…”

The little robots made indignant sounds, flatly refusing the flyer's speech.

“~ They are evil! ~ Swindle insisted ardently.

- They thought they were doing well… I'm an enemy for them… answered Starscream discreetly.

- ~ We are also their enemies in this case! ~

- No, listen, it's too dangerous for you to stay with me…

- ~ Why?! ~

- I'm a renegade now, Swindle… That means no place to live, no energon, no security, no doctor… You understand?

- ~ It's dangerous for you too…~”

The minicons began to cry, much to the dismay of the Seeker who had no idea how to console them. He had never been very good at it, and no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find a single solution that could calm them down.

The jet saw Optimus and Ratchet move closer to him, while the others all watched from a distance, with a hint of wariness. The flyer tightened his wings, despite his injuries, and cast a suspicious look at the pair of Autobots, who were getting too close for his liking.

Prime knelt down in front of Starscream, get on the same level as him, much to the Seeker's surprise. The jet frowned, and pulled away slightly, not trusting the closeness.

“You know I could easily rip your neck out from this distance." the flyer threatened, which resulted in tensing them all up, all but the leader of the Autobots.

Optimus was silent for a while, before asking:

"Do you intend to do this?

- Wh…?! uh... No… "

Starscream lowered his head and wings, then looked away, fists clenched. He just wanted the Autobots to take the minicons with them, and protect them, that's all! But he knew it wasn't a request he could easily make... They were suspicious and on their guard, and the slightest mistake could endanger him, but also the minicons...

"I'm not looking to fight…" the Seeker finally said, under the saddened gaze of Swindle, who kept trying to stop him in his speech.

The jet didn't know why it was so hard to make this request, when he knew perfectly well that it was best for the little robots. It was his only way to protect them, so why was it so hard?!

"I'm a renegade now… I have nowhere to go…

- You think we're going to take you on our team?! snapped Arcee vigorously.

- No…! Starscream replied, frowning.

- What are you looking for in this case? Bulkhead asked.

- I just want you to take these minicons with you…

- Why? Wheeljack wondered in wariness.

- Stop being suspicious for two seconds…! the Seeker hissed angrily, looking up at the Autobots. If I had wanted to destroy you I would have just had to ask Swindle and his friends to continue attacking you…!

- …

- What do you expect from us, Starscream? asked Optimus.

- Megatron is convinced that they are spies on your behalf, they are no longer safe with the Decepticons…

- I think a lot of explanation is needed. Ratchet said.

- I'm just asking you to take them, is it so difficult?!

- They have a phenomenal power, why not keep them? Bumblebee beeped.

- Renegade life is dangerous…! What a stupid question…!

- You don't want to join us? Optimus asked.

- Be serious for a second, Prime…!

- I'm serious.

- Optimus?! wondered the doctor.

- The minicons don't seem to want to abandon you, why force yourself to separate from them?

- They're kinda with me by default. replied the jet.

- I don't have that impression of it.

- …

- If they chose you, it's for a reason, you can be sure. Minicons do not choose by chance."

The flyer lowered his head in sorrow, before answering:

"Stop, you're only making it harder for me...

- No, I'm offering you an alternative.

- …?!

- Join us, Starscream."

Optimus stood up, and extended his hand towards the Seeker, who looked at it unsure how to react, before being encouraged by Swindle and the other minicons. Starscream grabbed the outstretched hand of this robot who was no gain in this, and stood up among this team, who would eventually accept him, and the minicons, into their family.

At the risk of being overly pessimistic, I've got some thoughts to share about HI3rd and Part 2 and whatnot. This is more of a vent post than any proper discussion or analysis but I want to share these thoughts somewhere because it's been on my mind for ages, and learning that the new UI comes tomorrow with the new patch has finally pushed me to write this.

Regarding Part 2, I will say that I'm willing to give it a shot. I know quite a few people (at least in some parts of the honkai community) felt a bit iffy about the Salt Snow Holy City arc, but I ended up loving it. So even though I haven't even started the current Fu Hua story arc, I do want to catch up and continue with the story.

But when I think about the past of HI3rd... I can't help but feel a genuine pain at the wasted potential of this game, its stories, and its characters.

There's a charm about early HI3rd that I really enjoy, partially out of nostalgia but also thinking about what could've been. So far, it seems like Mihoyo is intent on going full steam ahead and moving on. I don't see any sight of older valkyries being given minor updates (i.e. voicelines and basic animations/emoting), nor the early story being reworked, and even the original UI is getting straight-up replaced with a new design theme.

What do I think about when I think "early HI3rd"?

Hyperion. St. Freya. Shicksal. AE.

Of course this includes classic stuff like the White Comet battlesuit, or the early story arcs like the Battle of Schicksal.

But I'm also thinking about the incredibly neglected Armada and Dorm systems.

I'm thinking about all the different Valkyries and Valkyrie squads that we're told exist, yet only serve the tiniest slivers of roles in the story. The Phosdjinns (Susannah's old squad). Wendy & the Valkyries at the Schicksal base she was stationed at. Jackal, before she quit Schicksal and joined AE. Ana Schariac. Alvitr. Ragna.

I'm thinking about the fact that we still know virtually nothing about Bianka's brief stay at St. Freya. Or about how Rita struggled to become an S-Rank Valkyrie as a relatively normal person who had no stigmata like Bianka nor Herrscher powers like Kiana.

In terms of aesthetics, I think about the bright colors we associate with Hyperion and the old menus.

I think about all the old weapons & stigmata, and even the new ones, and how they have tiny descriptions that hint as so many interesting things behind the scenes. AE's Project: MEI, for instance, or Schicksal's St. 1504 labs.

I remember how often some people used to go "oh Genshin, pffft whatever, Honkai is so much better and it has cool animations and songs and it's Depression Impact and all that stuff!!!" and I used to agree with that. In some cases I still do.

But then I think about how EMPTY HI3rd feels. Genshin has some issues, but it's story has continuously been getting better, and the early content is still a fairly solid foundation. There's tons of interesting lore archives and hidden details across countless weapons, texts, and archive entries. You can learn so much about the past of Mondstadt's Aristocracy or the civilization of Sal Vindagnyr, or about the Yakshas, and Adpeti, or the 5 Inazuma sword-forging schools, and Enkanomiya, and so on.

But there's almost nothing about Schicksal or AE. We know almost nothing about how these two factions operate, aside from "they have a bunch of fancy tech".

Hyperion's not the only flying ship Schicksal has. Aside from Helios we also see and hear about others like the shuttle that the Immortal Blades used in Arc City, or the large ships we see flying in the background of the Armada home screen.

Where are those ships built? Who's crewing them? What does Schicksal do with all these resources? How are the Valkyries in these ships and stationed in bases across the world fighting Honkai in their own way?

What about AE? Sure AE has robots, but robots alone aren't enough. AE still needs leaders and people to make decisions. We know about the obvious Welt, Tesla, and Einstein. But what about Raiden's father, Raiden Ryoma, who we saw play an active role helping AE in the Second Eruption? How does he use ME to help support AE's operations? Are there others like him who make their own investments and sacrifices to help protect their corner of the world?

What was Susannah's life like before and after she joined the Phosdjinns? What about the Phosdjinns themselves? We know a tiny bit about them: their squad leader, Matilla, seemed to come to lead the squad after the past leader died in combat. The other member, Zofia, seemed to promise the old squad leader to protect Matilla. And Matilla chose Susannah herself, so she may be at least partly responsible for getting Susannah up to the point where she could join the Immortal Blades.

What's their story?

What about Ragna and the Valkyrie Assault Squad? I remember there was a CG long ago, Idk if it was permanent content or a temporary event CG, but it revealed that Ragna knew both Rita & Bianka as well as Himeko. So the same person that trained Himeko and led her into battle also gave guidance to Rita and Bianka. What was her life like? How were these incredibly influential Valkyries changed by this role model they have in common?

And speaking of Rita... in the Meow Town Escape event, Rita told Susannah how she had to work hard to join the Immortal Blades and become an S-ranker. Rita has no legendary stigma like Bianka, nor is she a Herrscher like Kiana, nor a MANTIS like Hua. So how did she get to become an S-rank? What trials did she endure, what sacrifices did she have to make?

What about Sin Mal? What happened to Cocolia's orphanage after the failure of the X-10 experiment? How did Cocolia end up working with AE, and how did she end up serving as an agent(?) for World Serpent as well?

Speaking of Cocolia, what happened to her after the Second Eruption? She went from being a minor officer in the Red Army in the middle of Siberia, to running an orphanage that also ran a secret set of experiments. What did she endure in all those years?

There's so much more I could go on about. Wendy, Ana, pre-World Serpent Jackal, Alvitr, Amber, Dr. Nagamitsu, Sin Mal.

All these characters have hints of their stories throughout the game. Sometimes it's a small set of flashbacks, some are fortunate enough to star in a single arc, and some are unfortunate enough to get most of their character development in temporary events.

And of course St. Freya itself could do with more screentime since most of that story is told through manga, not even in the game itself.

But all of these details lead... nowhere.

HI3rd is full of countless seeds of stories, little snippets that tell us that there's so much more beyond the story of our main trio. These characters don't all need full story arcs, of course not. The main story is written and done (though I think the first few chapters deserve a solid remake).

But there could've been something more. Archive entries, weapon & stigmata descriptions, new Valkyrie Chronicles episodes, etc. Schicksal HQ OW could've been revamped to tell us more about the Immortal Blades, Otto, Amber, and Dr. Nagamitsu. Sakura Samsara could've been polished to meet modern standards, giving both Kallen and Sakura fans better content without having to write them into a new part of the story.

Heck, I even think Mihoyo could've even released a "St Freya semi-open world". Make a "Chapter 0" prologue that takes place in Nagazora when Mei awakens her Herrscher power and when she & Kiana meet Bronya. Then make a couple of short story missions mandatory in the Schicksal semi-open world, then lead that into Chapter 1. That way the Main trio gets a proper introduction and we're not thrown into an in-progress story with no proper beginning.

Then that Schicksal semi-open world could have been filled with all sorts of content that develop the early story without having to cram lots of stuff into the post-Selene events. Short slice-of-life stories in the St. Freya school days, little peeks at the past life of Himeko and Theresa, archive entries telling us more about Schicksal & St. Freya.

Players that want to advance the main story can do so almost right away, just with a bit of extra context going into the action. But old & new players alike could revisit this era of Honkai and learn more about these beloved characters, and the rest of the story could continue as-is without having to cram extra story arcs elsewhere somehow.

I've been thinking about all this stuff for months, hell maybe a couple years now. As someone who plays HI3rd, Genshin, and HSR, and enjoys all 3 games equally, I like to see how these games can all learn from one another. HI3rd has so, so much room to grow as a game and as a story experience, and Genshin & HSR provide a lot of examples of ways this can be done.

There's a lot of room to adjust the early story of HI3rd and add content without bogging down the pacing of the main sequence of events, just like Genshin & HSR have lots of side content like character stories, stuff that's important and enjoyable but also isn't part of the main story and doesn't get in the way of those events.

But as far as I can tell... none of this is ever going to happen. At least not anytime soon.

Part 2 is here, and the new UI is coming. We'll soon get introduced to a new cast of characters, and new stories will be told.

But I don't agree with the whole "let the past stay in the past" thing here, because these aren't finished stories. HI3rd has countless untold and unfinished stories already.

I think expanding on the stories of these characters and organizations will only improve the rest of the game.

Learning about Jackal's past will make her more than just a mustache-twirling villain that throws a tantrum when Senti breaks her toys.

Learning about Wendy will make her an actual character and not a shitty "look at this character and their sad back story, oh no they turned evil, oh no they died off-screen! how sad :(" character.

Learning about Himeko's past is obviously going to make her sacrifice feel more impactful. Final Lesson was already sad, but what if we had in-game story content that showed us what happened to her when her father died, and when she joined Schicksal? What if we got to witness her growth under Ragna's leadership and the way her life was changed when Ragna died?

All of these characters could benefit from a bit more backstory, even the Main Trio. Exploring these early stories would make HI3rd's setting feel so much more alive and thought-out. Not everyone cares that much about these characters, but Mihoyo has the power to give them a reason to care.

I know not everyone likes the way the Elysian Realm story played out, but I think nearly all of us can agree that the Elysian Realm did a great job at presenting the story of the Flame-chasers. We get archive entries that tell us key scenes of their past, and we interactions with them that show us their personalities. But so many other characters outside of the Elysian Realm get nothing like that.

Obviously implementing even some of these ideas would take a lot of time and effort. I understand why Mihoyo might've chosen not to address the early story, because for a given amount of resources they're gonna make more profit off of continuing to move on and make new characters and focus the story around them.

But knowing why things happen doesn't stop me from being disappointed about them. Even if Part 2 turns out positively, that won't fix all the broken things in Part 1.

As I write this, I'm listening to one of the Genshin OSTs from the Narzissenkreuz Ordo. Having finished that world quest series recently, I keep thinking about just how incredible that story was. The story of these characters and the tragedy they endured reminds me so much of the struggle of the Flame-chasers. But that was all side-content. It was unvoiced quests with minor characters with simple models. But they had so much life to them. They had interesting motives to push them through the story, and they had interesting connections with each other. The story of the Narzissenkreuz is just one part of the many intertwined stories of Teyvat, and it's a beautiful part.

And then I think about HI3rd, and I wish I could have this same experience with HI3rd, where I could think about the lives of these characters and their motives and the struggles they go through, but I just can't. Not without diving fully into the realm of fanfiction and dreaming up stories that give these characters the life they never got to live, and which they may never get to live in the canon of HI3rd.

All these seeds of stories that were planted years ago and neglected ever since. Never watered, never sprouting, never getting to see the sun.

#honkai impact 3rd #hi3rd #honkai 3rd #long post #vent post #i am in genuine pain from this #this is just straight-up rambling at this point #this turned out really pessimistic i have to admit #sorry 'bout that cause i didn't mean for it to get so long and rant-y T_T

Kiya, can I ask, when did you start shipping BakuDeku and SatoSugu? For me it's in BNHA chp 285 (I know, kinda late) and the JJK chp 90 (one of my top 10 fav manga chapter ever)....

Ooooh, I'm gonna be honest... I don't even know. At least, with BkDk.

Now for SatoSugu, it was probably when I watched the movie. At that time, I was already into NanaGo (still like it), watched the movie and went "Well, adding one more ship to the armada" because why not?

I'm sorry, there are just too many SatoSugu bits in there and how can I not ship them?! 😆

It will always be funny to me that Suguru was renaming folks with names close to Satoru's name and wearing a piece that has his name in it and Satoru just recognizes Suguru's scent.

Like, bro... HOW?! HOW?!

As I said, I'm not too sure with BakuDeku. I actually watched seasons 2 and 3 first before season 1, and by then I did have other Izuku and Katsuki ships I liked. But watching season 3, especially became an eye opener, so I wanna say around that time.

I also binge read the manga, so then it was like "Oh my gosh"...

It was just always stuck out to me that Izuku calls Katsuki "Kacchan" and not once Katsuki tells him not to. Katsuki being Katsuki, you would think he wouldn't like to be called such a cute nickname and given he will be bold about anything else and have said something before but no. Izuku can call him that however he pleases.

if you had to assign at least 10 qsmp characters songs that fits them. what qsmp characters would you choose and which songs would it be.

(and feel free to explain your reasoning behind the choices, but you don't have to)

OOHHH FUN ASK! Thank you Anon! Now, sorry if this takes me really fuckin long to answer because I am gonna be thinking about my answers very deeply-

Foolish - Parachute by Liel Bar-Z ("I did it, I did, I jumped, I walked right off that cliff without a parachute" is SUCH a banger way to describe how qFoolish lives his life. He would just jump into situations and make brash decisions without a fallout plan JUST because he's curious about what would happen.)

Badboyhalo - Momento Mori by Fish in a Birdcage ("Momento Mori, leaves a debt. You haven't paid it yet. I never wanted to sleep" HELLO?? "My suit stayed the same, can't remember my own name, inside a timeless cage" need I explain myself???)

Jaiden - Who Am I by Besomorph ("You've given us everything and nothing at all, so why do you build us up to crumble and fall?" "I'm falling apart at the seams, I can't deny, I'm losing grip of what I knew" Just thinking about how terrible it must have felt for her when she realized she used to be part of the organization that is causing so much pain to her and her friends, yet she's still powerless... GHHH)

Baghera - Rät by Penelope Scott ("I came from scientists and atheists and white men who kill god, they make technology high quality complex physiological, experiments and sacrilege in the name of public good, they taught me everything, just like a daddy should" Thinking about Baghera thinking the Federation's her only family now... AUGHHH"

Forever - Give a Little by LeGrand ("Everyone projecting all their dreams on me, a million life plans of what they want me to be" Dude, listening to this song while thinking about Forever's story ever since he became the president? It hurts. "Just give a little, give a little, give a little, until you disintegrate")

Pac - Ship in a Bottle by fin ("You set sail alone, there is no crew. No one on deck who can help you, this is all your own battle to win, this is your ship and you are the captain" His whole story during the Happy Pills arc!! He was alone at that moment, driving his own boat, trying to save his friend and himself and everyone who could potentially be affected.)

Cellbit - Stronger by The Score ("I write truths and never fiction, my disease is what you fed, I can't stop with my ambition, like a missle on a mission, I'm a force that you will dread" Cellbit's way of dealing with the Federation, so unrelenting, never ending. They keep pushing him down and he always comes back)

Tubbo - Middle Finger by Bohnes ("So I put my middle finger up, I'm done being your slave. My generation's had enough and you should be afraid" His beef with the Federation will always be famous <3)

Roier - Pretender by AJR ("I'm a good pretender, won't you come see my show? I've got lots of problems, well, good thing nobody knows" IT'S LITERALLY HIM "Don't you think I'm clever? We laugh at all the same jokes")

Etoiles - Do What I Gotta by Naethan Apollo ("Imma do what I gotta. This city got issues, lucky for us, though, I'm a one-man armada" I don't even know enough words to express how ETOILES this song is. Just- just listen to it idgsjs)

#qsmp #timb answers #not gonna tag all of them lmfao #long post #kinda?#just know anon that i loved this so much that I am now only gonna go to sleep at 1am lmfao #no worries tho <3

The Emperor's New Muse Part .3

Odyssey Kayn x Reader

content: References (see if you can catch them all), meeting the morning star crew, unedited.

Exiting the Fractal Shear, you weren't prepared for what lay beyond the ship. Years of hatred for the empire couldn't stop you from letting out a shocked gasp. The palace port, which you assumed was underneath the palace itself, was unbelievably massive. The station stretched out far beyond your line of sight. An expanse made of cold, dark metal lined with sterile lights.

Thousands of troops patrolled this underground base, stoically staring ahead as they marched to wherever they were headed. Yet underneath the dark visors, you could feel judging glares towards yourself. Even in demaxian clothing, you still stood out to them, probably because you were in "casual attire" and they were in uniforms.

Oh, how ironic were the circumstances right now. How you would claim to be the biggest threat to the empire, talking big about tearing down the metropolis of the capitol. You would daydream about being like Katniss Everdeen, the symbol of rebellion leading a large revolution.

But you were no such thing, instead you were being walked out of the empire by the locus armada like you were a teenager in detention. How shameful. The many footsteps echoed through the facility, you were no longer cuffed or restrained, no soldier bothered to touch you. Not when the Ordinal was right next to you holding that scythe.

"I have a personal meeting with the King" Kayn states "My men will escort you out of the palace through the underground system and you will go with them willingly. Don't try anything stupid in the heart of the empire, we have thousands of personnel that can and will dispose of you for even sudden movements." You nod as Kayn separates from his troop heading toward a grand entrance which you assumed led up to the palace.

You don't get to see much more as a firm nudge from one of the soldiers reminds you to keep walking. As you walk you can’t keep your eyes from scanning your surroundings, you may have heard of the empire being extremely wealthy but actually seeing the wealth in the form of a technological marvel is jawdropping. The metal hallways are wide, and the floor is immaculate and perfectly maintained, you’d expect such a massive structure to have a few imperfections but all you can see is beauty. You wonder how many workers are needed to maintain such a massive structure, as your escorts walk you down a side corridor.

You are led through to the exit, stepping out into a secret passage behind the palace itself. They continue to guide you wordlessly until you are officially out of the series of gates bordering the property. From what you had seen this place was highly secured and had safety measure after safety measure, it must've been a chore to get in and out of the palace. The commutes to get through the entrance must've been at least twenty minutes....soo pretentious.

Finally, you were officially out. The locus armada threw you to the ground and without a word disappeared into the palace. You made sure to flip them off with both your middle fingers the moment they had turned their backs. Sighing in defeat you turn on your heel to face the metropolis, The city stretches as far as you can see, a sea of neon lighting up the night sky. There isn't a single patch of darkness. Awe strikes you as you behold one of the most lavish cities in the Empire. Everything is a technological masterpiece, the bright lit metal buildings are so well designed with their smooth corners and vibrant lights. You realize that the people of the city must be extremely wealthy, as even the lower sections of the city are well maintained and luxurious. The city is like a giant gem, the bright lights and shining metal creating a captivating display of beauty and awe. You can’t help but look around in astonishment and wonder.

You are filled with mixed feelings as you gaze upon the lavish metropolis. While it was an undeniable work of beauty and sophistication, the thought of so many people struggling to survive while others were surrounded by excess was heartbreaking. You wondered how the Empire rationalized such disparity and the implications of such a lopsided economic system.

But you had bigger concerns right now, the prospect of traveling all the way back home seemed impossible without a hyperdrive. But there was no point in dwelling on the problem, the first thing you should do was find someone who could provide you with a ship or transportation. The distance between planets was astronomical but there were plenty of ships that traveled between each of them for travel or cargo, you just needed to catch a ride...

Days later and you had found yourself in a new routine, with no money to your name you had taken up ship hopping to make the journey back. It has been an arduous journey, with many close calls and several days of waiting for your next ship. You are now back among familiar stars and planets. Your home planet of Piltron lies ahead, the final leg of your journey.

You would day dream about having your own ship sometimes, life would be so much more exciting and fulfilling if you were able to space travel more freely. It certainly would save you the trouble of illegally smuggling yourself on cargo ships to get back home, then again...what was stopping you from taking your own ship and commendeering it? You rejected those thoughts as quickly as they came into your head. You may be a bit of a street rat who committed a few petty crimes (mostly towards the Demaxian Empire because fuck them.) But you weren't going to just steal someones ship for selfish benefit. Perhaps you could join a crew and start a new life? Wishful thinking was all that was, you sigh.

For such a draining and demoralizing trip, the prospect of returning home filled you with hope. Finally a conclusion to this dramatic story you had lived through, sure you were not done with being a menace to the empire but that chapter could be revisited later.

But life was never easy for you now was it?

The cargo ship you were currently tucked away in was facing a serious dilemma. Due to engine problems the ship had to make an unexpected landing a few planets short leaving you stranded on an unfamiliar planet. From the conversations you would eavesdrop on from the vents it seemed that the crew aboard the ship were taking a pit stop for an indefinite amount of time.

You couldn't wait aboard any longer with no clear means of getting home, you hadn't eaten in days and you were desperate to get home. After the crew had left their ship you slipped out from your hiding space, stashing some money you had watched one member store earlier in a compartment. You. Were. Starving. So now your priority was finding the nearest place to get some food. Exiting the cargo ship you were met with the urbanscape of Bildporter.

Densely packed buildings stacked upwards towards the sky, unlike the sleek and clean architecture of coreworlds like Demaxia_Alpha theses structures were much more drab, make shifted of hazardly welded sheds and shipping containers. The neon signage were dull and flickering. The streets are filthy and littered with rubbish, creating a seedy and depressing atmosphere compared to the glamorous and beautiful cities you had seen previously. The general rule seemed to be: the further a planet was from the coreworlds the more poor and run down they were.

That didn't mean Bildporter was lifeless. The streets buzzed with swarms of people and alien species minding about their business. Compared to your clothes they were dressed much more casually than your current outfit. Everyone in this city seemed to have a shady air about them the majority of the population seemed to be made of space pirates. The atmosphere of the city is much more laid back and relaxed compared to the organized, orderly nature of the capital. In contrast to the opulence of the empire, the city seemed to be a stark reminder of the disparity and inequality between those who live on coreworlds and those who live on the fringe. It actually reminded you of home.

You knew you stuck out like a sore thumb, You couldn’t help but be on edge as you felt eyes watching you, people passing by with the occasional side glance in your direction. Stashing your (stolen) money down your bra and keeping your head down you made sure to not look at anyone in the eye and you shrunk into the crowd making your way through towards the first place that advertised food.

"Rough day?" casualy asks the bartender who takes in your appearance. You probably looked awful with how dirty the air vents are. Turns out they are never clean like those spy scenes in movies make out to be, those duct systems are actually filthy with dust and cobwebs, it was a struggle to not give away your position when sneaking aboard by sneezing.

"Rough week" you reply, the bartender chuckles before sliding you a plate with chili dogs on it. Your eyes are drawn to the crustacean-like arm he bore before flicking to his name tag: Bort. Shortly he was off to serve over patrons and make orders, allowing you to enjoy the solidarity.....or so you hoped.

The empty seat next to you gets taken by a man who you don't spare to look at, but you feel his eyes on you.

It's not long before the stranger finally speaks up. Apparently avoiding eye contact wasn't enough of a deterrent. "Can I buy you a drink?" He asks "You look like you need it".

Well, he wasn't wrong. You figured you can swallow some pride and suck up to this man if it means a free drink or two, reducing that stress and anxiety before going back to ship-hopping home would be nice. Nodding you take up his offer, ordering a cocktail of dark rum, white rum, pineapple juice and coconut cream.

You spare the man a glance and take in his appearance as the sweet and tropical taste of your drink goes down. He looked disheveled with white locks of hair messily tied into a ponytail, a line of light stubble forming an extended goatee and a scar across the bridge of his nose. You knew this man, he was one of the wanted "space pirates" of the moring star.

Peaking over your shoulder curiously, you spot three familiar faces tucked in the far corner of the bar. They looked back at Yasuo and you, mostly Yasuo as the girl with crazy orange hair and the giant blue space alien watched on with eager excited looks on their faces.

"I have to ask why you chose to hit one me" You ask taking another sip from your drink. "Fallen on desperate times?" You snicker feeling more playful as a warm and fuzzy feeling comes over you from your drink.

Yasuo shrugs "Thought I'd shoot my shot, I haven't seen someone such as yourself before. I was curious" You snort and swirl your cup in your hand.

"What? Never layed eyes on a filthy woman?"

Yasuo stammers and shakes his head, his cheeks turning pink. "Filthy? I never said-" You cut him off laughing as the rum in your system lightens your mood. He sighs before chuckling with you. "I swear its not just that you just stuck out from the crowd and my friends made a bet I couldn't break the ice." You roll your eyes with a smile.

"Well since we're here why not share some stories you look like someone who has a few tales to share." You extend a hand invitingly for Yasuo to shake. "I'm (Y/N) by the way". Yasuo flashes a charming smile and takes your hand with with own. "Im Y-"

"Yasuo I know" You interject to Yasuo's surprise. "....I'll explain. Its a bit of a story"

After a couple of hours you had moved to the back of the bar joining the morning star crew. You had just gone over how you managed to get away with destroying a locus armada ship and survived an encounter with the infamous Ordinal (leaving out what happened after) and that had earned you the respect of the crew who revelled in your story.

You were now situated between Yasuo and Sona while Jinx retold the many adventures the crew had gone through together. It was nice being with lively company, even with how chaotic this group seemed to be there was something comforting a bout this dynamic. Your eyes wandered from each member before landing onto Sona. You were informed about how the Templar was not one for words, when Yasuo introduced you to her earlier she offered a small polite smile and a soft wave. You couldn't help but be mesmerized by her, especially her eyes, the moment you looked into them you felt like you were being drawn into these deep and endless pools of gold. Sona was mysterious and it intrigued you especially with what you know about her being the key to Kayns plans.

"So I chased after that Hydraxal Super Squid and blasted it with my trusty Pow-pow and after tearing up its goopy insides I got my camcorder back!" Jinx exclaims after finishing another story. She slams her hands on the table and leans over towards you so that her face was inches from yours. "Do you wanna see it? The recruitment video!? Its super professional plus I made it myself!"

You had jumped in your seat when Jinx loudly addressed you, she was quite the high energy person and you were certain a few screws were loose in her head. Before you can even form a response Jinx fishes out a tablet and shoves the screen to your face forcing you to watch the recruitment video.

"You know what would be so cool? You should totally join our crew!" Jinx blurts looking at you with wide eyes. Malphite also seems excited as he looks at you with a wide smile, it was an amusing sight seeing such a tall hulking alien cramming himself into a booth. He seemed to parrot the enthusiasm of Jinx which you didn't find surprising. After all they were best buds. Jinx turns to Yasuo pouting. "Please can we keep her? Pleaseeeeeeee?" You stare at Jinx perplexed 'Why was she asking in a way that made you feel like a pet?'.

Yasuo sighs shrugging his shoulder making his space lizzard bounce a little. "I suppose if (Y/N) is looking for that kind of new life path we are open for more recruits." You take a moment to consider this.

Joining this rag tag group of junkies would certainly assure you a life of comfort, not only would you no longer need to worry about your essential living needs but you would also have company, and the opportunity to properly stand against the empire. Yes this group weren't exactly rebels to the Demaxian empire but with all of them being wanted as criminals there were plenty of opportunities for you to get revenge against the empire and its ruler.

Plus there was also the mysterious adventure that Sona promised, You hadn't forgotten Kayn's words. She was the key to opening the Ora Gates and that was fascinating to you. Now it's not like you had maleficent intent to use this opportunity to get close to and use Sona to unlock whatever is behind the gates but rather you wanted to tag along for the ride and see where it goes. Besides with the fate of the universe in the hands of these three...they were going to need all the help they could get.

Just as you are about to accept, the doors to the bar are thrown open, swinging so hard they slam against the wall. In march a familiar Ordinal and his Locus armada, the lively atmosphere of the bar is killed as Kayn's single blue eye scans the sea of patrons before landing on you and the morning star crew. His lips curl back baring his teeth in a snarl and he hisses under his breath.

"You.."

Thank you to those who have supported this series so far!

Part 4 out now!
